Book 29. A person who is a manager. What is its purpose? It is the purpose of management to keep asking this question.

 Hello. β (beta). This time, I would like to write about the profession of manager.

When you think of a manager, you may think of a middle manager, but management can be said to be the president's job. Furthermore, it is the job of a manager. The most important thing in my job is to observe management.

When it comes to management, it seems that it is normal for middle managers to give instructions and subordinates to act according to instructions. In order for a subordinate to be a subordinate, a boss must be a boss. In order for a subordinate to surpass his subordinates, he must surpass his superiors and exceed his superiors' instructions.

The boss's accurate instructions motivate and motivate the subordinates, but the boss must take responsibility for the actions of the subordinates. The actions of subordinates must reflect the instructions of their superiors, but they must also be able to act beyond subordinates. Only when a subordinate quits a subordinate can he succeed as a manager.

However, raising subordinates is difficult, and the will of the boss must be reflected. Otherwise, they will lead their subordinates to a difference in direction, a dichotomy, and even self-destruction. Raising subordinates means going beyond subordinates, beyond superiors, and increasing autonomy to the point where they understand the boss's wishes.

In order for a subordinate to be a subordinate, he must become the boss's right-hand man, the boss's shield, and the boss's spear, and bring him to a state where there is no contradiction. If I were the boss, the instructions I give to my subordinates are a general agreement, not a detailed process.

A rough agreement is enough to communicate with subordinates on a regular basis, and more importantly, there is a relationship of trust, but I don't think a boss who ends at a detailed process will never be a big success. It can be said that it is the duty of the boss to fulfill his responsibilities in an emergency, just as the boss is the boss, without imposing responsibility on the subordinates.

I wrote that when a subordinate quits a subordinate, it is a great achievement as a manager, but I think one theme can be what happens to the subordinate or the boss when the boss quits the boss. The boss cannot surpass the boss.

Because the boss is only the boss. Beyond that, when you quit your boss, your organization will be automated. Autonomous forces work in the organization, and the organization becomes an organization beyond the organization. Even without a boss, the organization is formed into a state of activation.

One of the points of achievement as a boss is when you quit your boss and automate the organization. That is one of the points to achieve, and it is something that every good manager has tried. What goes beyond that point and now goes beyond that is to create a new organization.

When you automate your organization beyond your boss, the new challenge will be to shape a new organization. This emphasis is the original job of the manager, and it can be said that it is the reason for the existence of the manager to be a manager.

If I were to become a manager, it would be said that management is to shape a new culture, civilization, or world, and to be a part of the wheel of it. The reason why I think this part is important is that as we move into a new era, society will become more sophisticated and shape a new era.

Each organization does not exist from the beginning, but when an organization is established, its dynamics lead to an automated mechanism. On the basis of an automated system without a founder and manager, the dynamics of the founder and manager will turn in a new direction to create a new organization.

And if the new organization is automated, it is the original role of the manager to steer the foundation and training of the new organization. The role of the manager is never to make the organization bigger. It is the role of executives and bureaucracy to make the organization bigger.

Beyond that, managers create something out of nothing. It can be said that the creation of new things is the responsibility of the manager, whether it is an organization or a product. Originally, the manager should be the boss.

When a subordinate quits a subordinate, the subordinate becomes the boss. When the subordinate becomes a boss, he needs to quit his boss. It is the responsibility of the boss to give autonomy to his subordinates, transfer responsibilities, and form an autonomous organization.

If you get to that point, leaving the rest to the younger generation and moving to a new organization is proof of your existence as a manager. I think that a manager is a manager. In order to become a manager beyond a manager, the main focus is on mastering the realm of creation beyond several processes.

A person who is a manager. What is the purpose? There is no chance of winning for managers who do not see their purpose or for the organization. What is the purpose? It is the purpose of management to keep asking this question. And that's it. Thank you for your growth. It was β.

 Hello. This is the Ten Watanabe of the R86plusA blog.

There are people who have a bad tongue and find it difficult to listen to them when talking. I have had several experiences where I thought it was difficult for elderly people to listen to them, perhaps because of their dentures.

The fact that the tongue is not smooth and it is difficult to hear what is being said is a disadvantage for both the speaker and the listener.

One suggestion I would like to make is to speak with your tongue. If you are a good singer, you know that if you put effort into singing "Nodobutsu", you can sing a clear song.

However, the problem here is not the "throat", but the "tongue". I think that people who have difficulty hearing their voices probably don't have strength in their tongues.

Therefore, by practicing vocalization while putting effort into your tongue, it will be easier for the other person to hear you.

Even when singing, if you not only focus on the "throat Buddha", but also on the "tongue", you can go to the next stage one step further.

If you can't get your voice to be understood, why not try various things by focusing on your throat and tongue?

page 5!! There is a famous story about how many times you need to fold paper to fold 1mm paper and cross Mt. Fuji, and the answer is 22 times -R86plusA-

 Hello. This is Ten Watanabe of the R86plusA blog. Computers need to think about memory, which is the amount of data.

Until now, there have been various digital media such as blogs, audio media, and images, but the mainstream these days is still video distribution. Videos are informative, and you can get a lot of information at a glance.

On the other hand, there are also limitations in data capacity, and a single video can be very large as data, such as hundreds of megabytes.

Even if the computer itself has a lot of terabytes (1 million times 1 megabyte), if you take and store many videos, the memory capacity will naturally decrease. However, if it is a text file with only text written on it, it often takes only a few kilobytes (1/1000th of a megabyte).

Here, let's review the part-time job. 1 kilobyte = 1024 bytes, 1 megabyte = 1024 kilobytes, 1 gigabyte = 1024 megabytes, 1 terabyte = 1024 gigabytes.

By the way, the reason why it is 1024 instead of 1000 is that computers represent data only with the numbers 0 and 1 called binary numbers. Therefore, the capacity of data such as the power of 2 is easier for a computer to handle.

Multiply 2 to the power of 10, that is, 2 10 times, to get 1024. There is a famous story about how many times you need to fold paper to cross Mt. Fuji by folding 1mm paper, and the answer is 22 times. It might be interesting to do some math on this yourself.

The power of 2 is an exponential increase, and if you multiply it by 2 100 times or 1000 times, it becomes an astronomical number.

When it comes to cryptography, which is computer security, this idea called exponential has become the mainstream today, and exponential cryptographic digits are realized.

page 4! If you are asked to shop without any trouble, you will not accept it obediently, and at least let me buy at least one of the sweets -R86plusA-

 Hello. This is Ten Watanabe of the R86plusA blog. There is a formula that says income - cost = profit.

The idea of income is generally based on production (quantity) x price (price) in economics.

However, in the real economy, it is absolutely not possible to sell all the quantity produced as it is, so it seems that the general income formula is to use sales quantity x price.

If all the products can be sold, you will mass-produce Mercedes-Benz.

So, in this case, if the sales quantity is Acheieve x (Ax) and the price is price(p), it becomes pAx. As for the cost, the production volume is multiplied by the cost per unit, so it is production volume (x) x marginal cost (MC).

So, if you become an enlightened monk who says that you don't need profit, your profit will be zero.

You can't think of zero profit. If you are asked to shop without any trouble, you will not accept it obediently. At least let me buy one of the sweets.

After all, income - expense = profit is pAx-xMC=π. And if the profit is zero, pAx = xMC, and the sales pAx and expense xMC match.

If the production volume is 15 units, the sales quantity is 10 units, and the marginal cost is $5, then p=xMC/Ax, so p=(15×5)/10=$7.5. In other words, if you set the price per piece to $7.5, you will not be in the black or in the red, but the sales and expenses will be the same, that is, zero profit.

Here, the story jumps skyward, but there is a concept called the quantity theory of money in macroeconomics. The formula MV = PT is M: money supply, P: prices, V: speed of money circulation, and T: real GDP.

Here, the person who hits the nail on the head is sharp. If PT = MV, it can be reduced to the formula of income = expense. If p=P, T=Ax, M=x, V=MC, then the two formulas will match.

Furthermore, if we say M: money stock M3, T: real GDP, P: CPI (consumer price index), and V: multiplier effect, the story will expand more and more. The equations pAx=xMC and MV=PT are also related to the IS-LM model of macroeconomics.

From here, through macroeconomics and microeconomics, new ways of thinking will be born more and more.

If you push it further, the formula p = MC is famous in microeconomics, but if P (price) = V (multiplier effect), M (money supply) = T (real GDP).

At this point, we can see that the current money stock M3, which amounts to 1,500 trillion yen, can achieve an efficient economic environment suitable for market principles by matching the real GDP of 550 trillion yen.

As an aside, money stock = credit multiplier x monetary base.

Monetary base = "Bank of Japan bill issuance" + "money circulation" + "Bank of Japan current account".

And that's it. See you then.
